Really pleased to have The Guardian Poem of the Week. @guardian @NineArchesPress It's just a lovely antidote to start rounding off the strangeness of 2020! theguardian.com/books/booksblo…

Looking forward to this with @timrelf @dislaney @MariaTaylor_ at Waterstones in Market Harborough @PoetrySociety @cwaleicester @EverybodyReview @PoetryDayUK

Am really looking forward to taking part in a poetry reading and discussion in Market Harborough @Waterstones on the evening of Thursday October 2, with @dislaney @MariaTaylor_ and @crystalclearjt. Please come along if you're nearby. waterstones.com/events/poetry-…

Our heartfelt thanks to @emergencypoet for choosing a gorgeous array of Nine Arches poets to fill the pages of these beautiful anthologies, with poems by @isobeldixon @jennywcreative @olgadermott @MariaTaylor_ @DeanAtta @rozgoddard & others. Offering comfort and inspiration.

@roguestrands @Nell_Nelson @TheFridayPoem Sorry I missed this, not Twittering. (or is it X-ing?) as much these days.

With @Nell_Nelson @TheFridayPoem @MariaTaylor_

At the launch of Whatever You Do, Just Don't (along with Mat Riches and his Collecting the Data) a year ago. Who said there's no audience for poetry...???!!!

@matriches I see what you did there!

@matriches What???

Thank you @LeafePress

Yesterday I overheard a teenage boy say to his friend 'Don't tell them I'm a Muslim, I'll get hate.' This is what we've come to in '24.

Just popping on here to share a recommendation of this excellent powerful collection by Rachel Mann. @Carcanet

@KostyaTsolakis Excellent!

@WordSparks @jennywcreative @kazbel @crystalclearjt @Julwe1 @NineArchesPress A pleasure xx

New issue of Under the Radar, which along with great poetry & short fiction, features my review of books by Sue Dymoke, Rachel Mann & Jean Atkin. Fab reviews also by @jennywcreative @kazbel @crystalclearjt & @Julwe1 @NineArchesPress

My review of "Contraflow: Lines of English news, 1922-2022" ed. John Greening and Kevin Gardner @renardpress is in the excellent new issue of "Under the Radar Magazine" from @NineArchesPress #bookreview @cwaleicester @EverybodyReview @PoetrySociety @MariaTaylor_

@NineArchesPress @pratibhacastle Thanks.

@pratibhacastle @MariaTaylor_ @jennywcreative @kazbel @crystalclearjt @Julwe1 Hello Pratibha, your poem will be in the Sound themed issue (34) which is due next - hope that helps!

@no1_Josephine I don't think so, but I'll buy you coffee and chocolate anyway 'cause you're fab.

@BeckyCullen @DrJoanneDixon @jennywcreative @kazbel @crystalclearjt @Julwe1 @NineArchesPress I'll send you a message, Becky.

@MariaTaylor_ @DrJoanneDixon @jennywcreative @kazbel @crystalclearjt @Julwe1 @NineArchesPress How might one become a reviewer for UTR, Maria? X

@no1_Josephine That would be lovely xx

@no1_Josephine Yeah, me too!

@NineArchesPress The little rambling roses crept over the neighbours fence, and I didn't trim them - just wrapped them round the tree!

@MariaTaylor_ @jennywcreative @kazbel @crystalclearjt @Julwe1 A fabulous magazine issue, thank you Maria, and a glorious photo too 🌸
